Im a Georgia resident that wants to plan a 2 week trip to Illinois to deer hunt on public land. I will be hunting everyday during the first 2 weeks of bow season. Ive started looking for some public land where I can shoot atleast a 120 class deer. Does anyone know of any good areas or regions? I dont mind along walk and a hard hunt. I will travel anywhere in the state. I actually prefer a long walk to hunt in peace. Could anyone point me in the right direction, with area names or regiopns or counties? thanks everyone

Been through there many times to watch high school friend play baseball in HarrisBurg, Illinois. Seen some big booner bucks there.

Good luck

Anywhere in Illinois can produce a booner. We pass 150 class deer every year. Did you draw tags? Phone in lottery is over I think? Some public ground doesnt allow non-residents in some area's.
